Players being allowed to roll when on the ground, preventing the player on his feet from playing the ball. Should be a penalty like it always used to be. but now you can roll, crawl and whatever you please and its play on. Here I thought rugby is a game played on your feet

@westcoastie Really if you can't see how negatively Barrett is effecting the attack then you need glasses. He is flatfooted when he receives and puts those outside him under pressure when he passes, which is mostly loopy slow passes
-
This ref is so crap just another example of shit reffing all around. The last try. How is that not a penalty at the scrum. The blues put in a shunt sharks move backwards and the collapse the scrum. Yet it's okay on. Utter shit. And the tmo call after the sharks made two clean breaks where number 2 held back defenders creating the gaps is just grating. I mean why bother. Just give the home team the points and don't play the game

Can World Rugby just sort out the refereeing. It's fucken abysmal. This game just showed it. How number 19 stayed on the field let alone not being penalised requires serious question. I mean what he did was far worse then Toupou last week. It's like they are agreeing that the broadcaster controls the TMO

@KiwiMurph O'Thief only reffing 1 team at the breakdown
-
@Bones it wasn't on the checklist for the tournament. The problem with reffing theses days
-
I don't understand the fuss about the tackle, so he led with the shoulder, but trying to make a dominant tackle you have to lead with the shoulder otherwise you'll break you arm. No way is it a shoulder charge. Seemingly the problem is not the tackle, but how messed up refereeing has become. Nowadays hard tackle on the chest is yellow cards
-
This competition can really get fucked. 1st it's the stupid conference system then they have home town refs with hometown TV producers wanting to also win it for the home team. How the fuck can there only by one camera angle for the disputed try, yet immediately after the try is given they show a reply from a side angle, which the referee wanted.

@Tordah said in Bulls v Highlanders:
Referee has been the best on the park
for real
He managed to make a sh1t game even worse with his bullsh1t calls
-
Really 5 penalties in a matter of 90 seconds on the line. Not even a warning. I hope this fuckin ref never handle any form of rugby ever
-
First set piece Nick is at halfback =try. Surely his better passing warrants a start. Ruru is a handbrake
-
Wtf. So what more evidence does Sanzaar want that SA refs in SA just don't work. Tmo looks at angle that clearly shows try being scored, tells ref want to view another angle. What for try was awarded
-
@Yeetyaah Really!?? He never released the tackled player
-
@Kirwan beyond sus. All penalties in second half going to Wallabies. How did is that
-
@nepia Exactly he was intentionally offside, so if he plays the ball even inadvertently its still intentional as he put himself there
-
If there's 1 person in NZ that's probably more excited than most watching the Blues forwards, it's John Plumtree. They playing a style that's suits his template
-
@Bones how's the ref clear an concise. When he twice pinged the Blues for players off the feet on attack, in both instances, the ball was already won before the player went off his feet. But ignores the exact same thing from the Chiefs
-
@booboo whoever posted that and wrote the tweet is really naff. So the clean out is fine cause Retallick was in on the side. So the cleanout which came from even further from the side was legal???
-
@Jailbreak7 What grates about this decision is the fact that the ref let plenty neck grabs by the Sharks go throughout the game only penalised one high tackle
